I am an author in research mode, currently looking for people who own or have first hand experience of Chris White's magnificent Explorer 44.

If you are such a lucky person or know someone who is, please get in touch. I have many questions to ask about the boat and a certain proposed journey.

The E44 will be a full-fledged character of the novel I am writing, and one that I am very fond of too. Since I don't like writing nonsense, all useful information will be gratefully received and its source appropriately acknowledged.
